For sale by the U.S. Government Printing Office Superintendent of Documents, Mail Stop: SSOP, Washington, DC 20402-9328 ISBN 0-16 -048237-2 Foreword arious forms of renewable energy could become important con- tributors to the U.S. energy system early in the next century. If that happens, the United States will enjoy major economic, envi- ronmental, and national security benefits. However, expediting progress will require expanding research, development, and commer- cialization programs. If budget constraints mandate cuts in programs for renewable energy, some progress can still be made if efforts are focused on the most productive areas. This study evaluates the potential for cost-effective renewable energy in the coming decades and the actions that have to be taken to achieve the potential. Some applications, especially wind and bioenergy, are already competitive with conventional technologies. Others, such as photovol- taics, have great promise, but will require significant research and devel- opment to achieve cost-competitiveness. Implementing renewable energy will be also require attention to a variety of factors that inhibit potential users. This study was requested by the House Committee on Science and its Subcommittee on Energy and Environment; Senator Charles E. Grass- ley; two Subcommittees of the House Committee on Agriculture—De- partment Operations, Nutrition and Foreign Agriculture and Resource Conservation, Research and Forestry; and the House Subcommittee on Energy and Environment of the Committee on Appropriations.

  • Intel® Optane™ Storage Performance and Implications on Testing Methodology October 27, 2017 Version 1.0
    Intel® Optane™ Storage Performance and Implications on Testing Methodology October 27, 2017 Version 1.0 Executive Summary Since the unveiling in 2015, 3D XPoint™ Memory has shown itself to be the disruptive storage technology of the decade. Branded as Intel® Optane™ when packaged together with Intel’s storage controller and software, this new transistor-less solid-state ‘storage class memory’ technology promises lower latencies and increased system responsiveness previously unattainable from a non-volatile memory product. When coupled with NVMe and ever faster interfaces, Intel® Optane™ seeks to bridge the gap between slower storage and faster system RAM. Intel® Optane™ and 3D XPoint™ Technology 3D XPoint™ represents a radical departure from conventional non-volatile memory technologies. NAND flash memory stores bits by trapping an electrical charge within an insulated cell. Efficient use of die space mandates that programming be done by page and erasures by block. These limitations lead to a phenomenon called write amplification, where an SSD must manipulate relatively large chunks of data to achieve a given small random write operation, negatively impacting both performance and endurance. 3D XPoint™ is free of the block erase, page, and write amplification limitations inherent with NAND flash and can be in-place overwritten at the bit/byte/word level with no need for over- provisioning to maintain high random performance and consistency. 3D XPoint™ data access is more akin to that of RAM, and thanks to the significant reduction in write-related overhead compared to NAND, read responsiveness can be maintained even in the face of increased system write pressure. A deeper dive of how 3D XPoint™ Memory works is beyond the scope of this paper but can be found elsewhere on the web.
